Physical therapists and physical therapist assistants
have been working together to provide physical therapy services
to patients and clients since 1969. Although many different
models of PT-PTA care delivery are used throughout the country,
there is limited data available to indicate which models are
most effective. This audio conference will describe a PT-PTA
team approach to patient care delivery that focuses on patient-centered
decision making, communication, and collaboration. |
